Ms MARTIN - 2003-02-26
Ms MARTIN (Chief Minister): Madam Speaker, I want to clarify one of the answers I gave to the member for Goyder about the question of one of my senior ministerial advisers and his conversation with someone who, I believe, is one of your constituents? Is he one of your constituents?
Mr Maley: Has a business and is actually one of your constituents, Clare.
Ms MARTIN: A business person, okay. Just to clarify, so we get this absolutely right. The senior ministerial officer involved rang the business person and offered to meet with him. The business person declined. So, when I said that there was an apology, there was not an apology because the offer was made to meet and the business person declined.
